I work for an arm of the DoD in IT, and you can just imagine my reaction when, last week, a mandate came down from "on high," informing us that all non-I.E. browers were to be uninstalled at once.

DFAS once required M$ products; however, an email to my representative got that changed.

Try the User Agent Switcher. One of my banks insisted on IE, so I told UAS to identify as IE, and the site works just fine.

My solution as well, my ethernet card is buggy, sometimes one works and not the other or visa versa.No one else in the house can stand to wait the extra 10-30 seconds Firefox takes to load compared to IE.
